Who is Thomas Miller, Patricia’s former high-school sweetheart?
Thomas is the kind of man Forlorn Beach knows by the sound of his truck.
He’s the local mechanic, who smokes as much as he fixes vehicles.
So far, most of his story has been seen through Patricia- He’s the old boyfriend… the dead-end relationship… the life she kept trying to make fit because it had been there for so long… However, Thomas has his own weight to carry. He knows there are parts of himself he has not yet learned. He knows there are habits he keeps coming back to. He knows Forlorn Beach is probably where he’ll stay, even if everyone around him keeps dreaming of somewhere else.
For Patricia, Thomas is the first sign that a familiar knowing can still become foreign.
